Hi,

 

I am not really sure.. You might want to check bpinst as well.. I think it
works for windows so perhaps it works for netware to.

 

Regards,

environment

NetBackup 5.1 MP4 on Solaris 9 master server / Novell Netware clients using
targets method

 

question

is it possible to use bpgp to get the bp.ini file from a Novell Netware
client onto a UNIX master server. And then edit it and place it back onto
the Novell Netware client? I don't want to "just try it" because I am afraid
of causing an abend.

 

from RTFM

The BP.INI file, which is shared by both Target and NonTarget, is the
configuration file used by the NetWare Client software to control back up
and restore operations on your computer. It is created in the
SYS:\VERITAS\NBUCLT directory the first time you run the NetBackup interface
program?s NetBackup Configuration. You can set many BP.INI parameters
through commands available on the Target?s NetBackup Configuration menu (see
?Modifying BP.INI Through the Target?s NetBackup Configuration Menu? on page
31). Others can be changed only by modifying the file directly with a text
editor, such as Notepad.

 

The bp.ini file does show up in the restore GUI under this path

/FS/SYS/VERITAS/NBUCLT/NetBack/BP.INI

 

I am thinking of using the following syntax on my master server

# bpgp from novellclient "/FS/SYS/VERITAS/NBUCLT/NetBack/BP.INI" /tmp/bp.ini

# vi /tmp/bp.ini

# bpgp to novellclient /tmp/bp.ini "/FS/SYS/VERITAS/NBUCLT/NetBack/BP.INI"
